    Factory turbo/ats 093 low rpm boost.

    Sequential is interesting. Very complicated over compounds. Must be so that the first turbo can be really small, and then not have to deal with it as a restriction, or risk overspeeding it?

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    For me, if I cant hear them run, and for a good amount of time, they are not known. I lucked out on one recently, 500 dollar complete factory turbo motor. Had missing injection lines and other parts stolen already. Cleaned stuff up and put it together. Started and ran great with very little...

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    The amount on the road here has gone down drastically in the last 5 years. Still see them though. Something that has been interesting is, any used 6.9 7.3 motors that come up on marketplace, if they are advertized as good running, sell pretty quickly. Even in the 1k to 1200 range.

    Medium duty 429 ford

    Hei is fine, just compare the drive end of it real close, and maybe check the gear after some time running. Have seen a few cause cam gear wear, probably tough to find one that isnt cheap china junk.

    Suspect IDM issue

    Does it run smoothly, no missfire, during the time it has no power? Has the ecm been swapped to a newer one that you can datastream?

    Transfer case options

    Bronco 1356 uses a flat flange on the rear output.

    Transfer case options

    Probably took out the slip yoke bushing, but could be cracked to. The other cases are good, and flat flanges are cool, but unless needed for strength, probably not worth messing around with changing driveshafts. What year is your truck? The newer cases wont drive a speedo cable.

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    Been awhile since I compared them, that is a lot more counterweight.

    Zf5 service plate replacment?

    why would they have even touched that if they were doing ball joints?

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    I have one of each of the flywheels here somewhere. Will try to look in the next few days. Not going to be about overall weight, but about weight offset built in to the flywheel. Is interesting though that ford says the differences cannot be seen, other than part number.

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    Would be interesting to know what the difference is, since luk has different part numbers for factory turbo or not on solid flywheels.

    T case speedometer tail housing swap?

    I dont remember if the non speedo gear 1356 has the spot for the ball that retains the speedo drive gear. Even if it does not, pretty easy to combine parts to make it happen.

    Factory turbo/ats 093 low rpm boost.

    Not really shooting for any max boost number, just trying to get an idea of turbo response at low rpm. Not really looking for more power than a maxxed turbo pump will provide. Sounds like by how yours acts, a stock 093 will probably do what I am looking for. Just looking for turbo response...

    Factory turbo/ats 093 low rpm boost.

    So, when does it start showing boost, and what does the gauge do between 1500 and 2k? A few reasons for asking, have plans of double od here shortly, and curious if that turbo will get me the boost that I am looking for, or if compounds with something a little smaller as the first turbo might be...

    Someone go get it!!!

    It is really hard to see, but pretty sure you can see the compressor housing on the left side of the engine, by the master cylinder

    Retuning a turbo spec IP to N/A?

    Do you have a picture of the torque screw?

    Retuning a turbo spec IP to N/A?

    Since the torque screw just limits the max travel of the metering valve....just like if you limited throttle movement....I would back the torque screw out all the way and then adjust internal screw for smoke/egt. Can use the torque screw for fine adjustment

    Aftermarket #1 injector line & timing problems

    you can hook the wires from the pulse meter right to the timing adapter on the number one line. Be interesting to see if it reads correctly with that aftermarket line.

    Gas vs diesel zf5

    I had the lowest gear t19 behind a 7.3 in a truck I had years ago and loved it. Have a 460 zf to put into my truck because It has the 4:1 t19 now, and it sucks.

    Dana 60 question.

    If we are talking about the diff that is in the picture, that is the rear diff and is a 10.25. Front is a d60. Yoke may have come loose....very common. But....those strap bolts are loose.....

    Fuel pressure question. Insufficient flow?

    Obviuosly, if there is any pressure at the ip inlet during extended wot you wont notice anything, but something that I have always assumed is that the pump needs good return fuel flow for cooling. The 6.5 turbo engines, use a very small, very dependable and quiet electric lift pump. The pre efi...

    SD vs KP D60

    They actually are, as the spindle bearing is exposed in the back of the wheel bearing. Have also seen shortened life of wheel bearing, as I dont think they they are sealed that well.

    SD vs KP D60

    This is really all the kp60 ever really needs. Have worked on many of these trucks over the years, and I have never had the king pins farther apart than replacing a bushing and spring, or most of the time just adding a washer. A well used sd 50/60 WILL need ball joints .........and then those...
